Phase rough sketch by Zairyo Paragon is one of my favorite games ever. I don’t like MOBAs
Phase rough sketch by Zairyo Paragon is one of my favorite games ever. I don’t like MOBAs and I was reluctant to try Paragon at first for that very reason, but this game is something special. Through highs and lows I’ve loved every iteration. It was the one game I wanted to play the most after Maria hit us.The graphics, hero designs, gameplay, animations, hero kits, it was all great. Even the card systems, though their implementation could have been better, as well as a much needed tutorial for new people to get into deck building. It was the most crucial element of the game as no matter which hero you chose, it was their deck that made the difference.Epic Games considers it a failure, I don’t think it is a failure, I don’t think they failed in making a great game, they failed at supporting it. Seems like Tencent will steal Paragon from us and it feels worse than if they had to close the game ‘cause it really was a failure. Supporting their current cash cow, Fortnite, is not illogical but putting all eggs in one basket is stupid. Sure, by itself Fortnite sold a lot, but it wasn’t until they ripped off PUBG that the game took off. Not only that but their initial promise of improving the game they sold (currently known as the Save the World mode) is nothing but an afterthought. I don’t wish them ill, granted I’m tempted to, but a fair warning. Once the Battle Royale fad is done and gone, what will you have? As it is, Fortnite gets boring rather fast, and that’s surprising considering all the genres mashed into it.Paragon was never boring to me, whether or not we had a new hero, there were always stuff to try, thanks to the deck builds.I want to thank the Paragon team for an awesome game, from Legacy to its current iteration, everything was amazing. I particularly want to thank everyone that worked on Phase. I rarely play support types, my roles are usually range and control type characters (granted with the nerfs Phase is more control than support now) but something clicked with Phase. It’s not just her appearance or the nuances in her animations (like her stance) it’s the whole package, every character in Paragon feels complete without resorting to animated shorts likesome other companies do. Paragon heroes can stand by themselves without being blessed by luck. In other games you have the hero designs, as interesting or appealing as they are, if not by how the voice actors injectedtheir personalities into their characters you wouldn’t have a fanbase making them greater than they really are.At the very least, I wish Epic Games would consider letting us keep Paragon as a peer to peer against the bots.There’s a change.org petition if you wish to contribute. -- source link
